The UK’s and Europe’s largest manufacturer of shower enclosures, wetroom panels and bath screens, Roman, are delighted to announce their sponsorship of CPNT7’s in the Edinburgh City 7’s tournament which took place on 31st July to 1st August.
CPNT7’s are a newly formed social rugby sevens team, mainly featuring students part of the Men’s Rugby Union set up at Northumbria University. Friends and family of founding members: Ben Whinney, Tyler Tomlinson and Will Davies also feature in the side. The club has the ambition of competing consistently at worldwide social/elite tournaments each year, and what better way to kick off than at one of the UK’s largest sporting tournaments in Edinburgh City 7’s. Although it is the club’s one feature in 2021, plans to feature at Bournemouth, Cheltenham, LDN and Dubai 7’s are in the works.
The CEO, David Osborne, has been involved in rugby all his life as a player, father and coach: “At Roman we really value being involved with the Edinburgh City 7’s and supporting CPNT7’s. Obviously we gain exposure, but it’s more about finding ways to be involved”.
“It is truly brilliant to have Roman Ltd on board as our main sponsor and we are incredibly thankful for the generous support that David and the team have offered us. It enables us to showcase Roman Ltd to thousands of players, spectators, and companies in Edinburgh, all whilst playing the fast-paced adaptation of the best sport on earth! We hope this summer’s feature at the tournament is just the start of a lengthy partnership with the company” says Ben Whinney, Founder and CPNT7’s Club Captain.
